Vinyl >genuinely higher quality than streaming Blu-Rays >genuinely higher quality than streaming Games >uhhh ummm we need the disc because ummm we just do OKAY
>>746683796>Vinyl >>genuinely higher quality than streamingthe main benefit of vinyl is that you get some nice artwork to look at and the experience of playing the music on the turntable. it doesn't sound better than streaming, vinyl is an outdated format and is genuinely nowhere near as good as digital.the main draw of vinyl, then, is in the collecting. it would make sense to keep releasing physical discs, as the same people that would buy a vinyl record would be the same people that would buy a physical game disc.
>>746684110Holy shit you’re retardedDo you even know how a vinyl record is made? It’s literally a 1:1 copy of the master recording FULLY ANALOG. CDs, let alone streaming, is a bunch of 1s and 0s which technically can never produce the exact same sound that was recorded in the studio. Once you hear something on CD then to vinyl, you’ll never hear that shit the same again
>>746684110avatarfagging retard
>>746684301There hasn't been a major analogue master in 20 years. Everything older than that is being pressed from a digital master. Analog is dumb, physical is stupid and was only ever acceptable as a DRM compromise.
>>746684301nobody tell this faggot about digital ma->>746684582fuck off
I don't have to buy a HDD to have a vidya collection
>>746683796Gaming skews more towards tech than art, and tech in general is getting ran into the ground by AI faggotry, which in turn has ran the disc production costs dry. Simple as that, really. We'd still have discs if it werent for faggots making it expensive in the sphere of things
i think its insane some want a disc when the same file can be moved to a hard drive with current internet speeds without impacting you anylet alone paying 30% cut for someone who stocks the disc on a store shelf
>>746685609Disc are dirt ass cheapDisc DRIVES arent
>>746684301Vinyls were never a 1:1 copy of the studio's master tape you drooling faggot, it wasn't even the best playback format of it's time. Reel to Reel sounded way better than your plastic frisbees.
>>746684110This anon only knows what he knows
>>746684301You are the retard holy shit. I run a record shop and it amazes me how many fucking snobs like you are retarded. Fucking cattle. You have AAA presses and that is what you want. DDA presses are standard today. In fact most represses or releases are just the CD masters slapped on a slab of vinyl.
>>746683796You post is confusingAre you arguing in favor or against physical media?
>>746684301This.It's why I only watch movies on VHS.
>>746683796Vinyls are shit. Modern ones are just digital to physical so they literally has the same quality as CD....for the first play at least, then by time it just gets worse. CDs are superior and 99% people don't have (and care) the equipments to hear the difference. >BDsReplace example with DVD which IS inferior but is still around because of high demand
Diana loves physical.
The reason is game data read requirements far surpass what a a Blu-ray is capable of. You can't read modern AAA games off a disc fast enough for games to work well, even HDDs struggle and you can read data faster on an HDD than Blu-Ray

>>746686418>He doesn't turn every movie he wants to watch into a series of zoetropes for optimal viewing
>>746686184He is in favor of shitting up an already shit board with deliberately inflammatory posts.
>>746684110The real argument for vinyl is the superior dynamic range. It's definitely not worth the drawbacks vs a cd/lossless digital though. I tried replacing my collection w/ high quality vinyl rips but got sick of having to turn them up extra loud to hear everything

Heres my personal Vinyl rip of the Madoka TV Soundtrack for my jewtube channel. It quickly got DMCA'd so here it is on mega so you can enjoy it. I think it sounds fucking great (and this was before i bought a ruby stylus). Worth a small fortune now https://mega.nz/file/dCgiRSoA#U_hgTlf6oSOxVYEhResl9OFhr9PN-N0ujhG6yt7bmJw
>>746683796u r rartedAny tech company can make DVD, CD etc players. Only Sony can make playstation game players. They will stop making PS5 whenever they decide to.
>>746683796>>genuinely higher quality than streamingWho's streaming anything? I just download the movie and watch them on my local server.
>746683796>There's no reason games cannot continue to be on physical discsAnd yet, games will not continue to be on physical discs.Deal with it son.Fuck you :)
How long will OP necrobump his shitty bait I wonder.
>>746684110>it doesn't sound better than streamingVinyl is mastered differently to digital because the needle colors the sound (gives it warmth), so there is a difference. However, what sounds best is how good the mastering engineer is. Mastering music is an art form, you will get different results depending on the engineer's skill and preferences.

>>746684110Some rare stuff is only on vinyl, or the best quality you can get is on vinyl. But yes digital is better
>>746683796They will continue to exist but only the good ones, like ps2 and before.
Vinylfags are a special breed but other than that no one listens to cassette tapes, or watches VHS movies. And blu-ray is a expensive waste of space.Im from the 80s and saw all that tech and was never attached to any of it (quality was usually bad, it was expensive and changing every 5 years)
>>746683796qrd?
>>746684110Holy shit shut up
>>746683796Vinyl is most definitely not better than lossless FLACBlue ray isn't inherently better than a 50gb mkv but unlike vynil is a convenient way to store that dataGames need fast transfer rates unlike the other two. On top of that they require complex drm that end up costing a good portion of some hardware.
Kek retards, donwload a vinyl rip once in your lives and see if that's something you want to listen to over a V0 mp3.
>>746706272Christopher Nolan will never pluck your copy of Interstellar off the shelf because your physical license expired.
>>746700568no one cares tranny
>>746685713The discs, cartridges, and Game-Key Cards are useful in the event of having your accounts wiped so long as the companies do not also blacklist specific discs or Game-Key Cards. There is no reason why these couldn't be sold as a digital code that you could just back-up to any text doc or physical paper. That's my main beef with them. I've had issues with accounts in the past and lost access to all games I did not physically own. You can also resell licenses quite easily if they have physical representations like discs. This was how I was able to afford games when I was younger.
>>746709540He won't pluck my digital copy either but your blue ray player will need a firmware update to read it and one day it won't receive any
>>746683796Albums get novelty releases on cassettes, maybe like 100 units. Vinyl has stood the test of time thankfully but it's not like you get a ton of them released or sold. It's a little less novelty than cassette but still novelty level. Blu ray movies are going away. Nobody buys game on discs, and even discs haven't held the full game in literally over a decade now.
>>746709817yeah on pc people have a lot of piracy to back copies upstill, from sonys perspective it makes zero sense to facilitate retails 30% cut or reselling discs
>>746710320Want a PS5 dump buddy?
>idgi
>>746684110This. Vinyls were horrible back then
>>746683796Vinyls are basically collector editions, BD are moving that way with shitty streaming giants hoarding more and more studios/titles, gaming should at least have collector edition physical disks same as the rest. Like for going platinum or for the 10th anniversary or something, have it after launch so bugs can be ironed out and studios can't use the "muh piracy" excuse.
>>746683796>blu-rays are higher qualityBullshit, it depends on what you stream. If your blu-ray was 1080p it was 1080p, it won't magically be higher quality than a 4k stream.And you need a disc for the same reason you want a blu ray or vynil. To own it, so you can play shit whenever you want, without the fear of a contract going defunct and the streaming service deleting your library.
>>746683796>physical disc>play a game without downloading itGet fucked
>>746710030Meanwhile Crunchyroll nuked all the Funimation digital copies and service after they bought it. no refunds or compensation to buyers
>>746684301the actual masters were done on high speed tape drives, far superior to any vinyl ever madestop being a nostalgia nigger
>>746683796except for the fact the sole creator of the media specifically said they arent making any more discs and arent allowing anyone else to make them by shutting the one factory in the world that prints them
>>746713080That sucks Never used it, I use nyaa
>>746713008>game needs to be installed and download a 40gb update
>>746683796They still release cassettes?
>>746713281i'd say less than 10% of games do this. Most companies that due this have usually had a stick up their ass. Latest one would be obvlion remaster. Physical only has sewers on it and requires a 80gb download that didnt let me play until the next fucking dayOther than that though if you could list some titles to back up your claim id be more convinced. some that are not some live service trash
>>746685713It's not about the disc, it's about the fact that you don't own your console and much less your digital games there.
>>746708391based and "shut the fuck up hanekawa"-pilled
>>746684110Vinyl does sound better than streaming. It's just inferior to CD quality.
>>746700568Sounds worse than a CD rip
>>746713676You don't own your physical games either, they can just force a system update and lock you out of anything they want.
>>746714083>Vinyl does sound better than streamingIt doesn't at all you coping nonce, this isn't fucking 2005 you can stream shit at studio quality.
>>746714681Alright I'll be more specific since you are autistic. The vast majority of streamed audio is inferior to vinyl. This isn't because vinyl is good. It's because most streamed audio is shit.
>>746683796>>746684110The main advantage to Vinyl is that they are immune to Rotational Velocidensity. Even flac suffers from degradation after enough time.
>>746714563True, but getting away with doing that would be a lot harder.
This is a terrible way to argue for physical media. Vinyls aren't necessarily better than digital. Blurays being better than streaming is a problem of bandwidth and you can pirate the entire damn bluray if you care enough. Games suffer no quality loss from being digital.
>>746700568Upload it to Archive.org instead of sharing it with the ingrates in this site?
I miss install and play.
>>746715975>746715975>Pirate blu ray>50gb video file>Have to play it on a gaming pc since my laptop just keeps stutteringHow come a 2005 walmart bluray player can play the bluray the file came from without breaking a sweat, while you need several hundred dollars to play it smooth on pc?Is ther a better way to play these files?
rip.
>>746716947I don't know what your setup is so I can't say. Use mpv or something.
